  • Hosepipe? Lol. We've been showerless (sort of) for a while. If we use it it rains in the kitchen :rotfl: so if we need to use it we have to have strategically placed buckets and towels round the edge of the bath etc to try & stop it. We try & stick to baths as it's easier. We're also not on a meter.

    That sounds like such a faff, no wonder you stick to baths.

    Looks like the girls have been all over this! Emsbet I really like some of the ideas that were on the links you posted too :D
    I don't do a lot with scrap fabrics yet - I've only recently started rag rugging - though you could use that technique for cushions/toys/rugs/blankets/clothes/bags/etc etc

    Glad they were of interest. I'd really like to start doing some crafting, especially as it might give me something to do when I'm jobless :o I've done some painting, watercolours, but I'm not that great. I've also done some pastel work, which I'm better at but I like to do big pictures and then there's nowhere to put them! :o

    I did start knitting but that stopped after the last mc as I was knitting booties :o

    Any suggestions on good things to start on that are quite simple? I really want a sewing machine so I can learn to make clothes because I want to be one of those mums that makes cool costumes for parties :)

    Glad your dad is out of hospital and your MIL has got a "release date" :)

    I have been having loads of pg/baby related dreams recently. Last night's was that we kept having babies and we kept losing them :( not fun.

    Still no AF but I'm still feeling crampy on and off (nobody tell me this can also be a pg symptom because I know ;)) and I don't feel particularly hopeful.

    Hope you all have a nice day (I always write this like I'm not going to be back on before this evening! You guys and I know this just ain't happening! ;))

    Morning all.

    CD14 here

    FF shows Monday to Wednesday as fertile days with Thursday for ov. Haven't BD'd since Friday as OH had cold & now I've got it!

    Anyway, this morning I have got a PEAK for the first time in 3 months on CBFM.

    Guess what we'll be doing later (hopefully). Might have to stop part way through for each of us to cough or have a nose blow!

    Will try in the morning too as OH away tomorrow night.

    Nikki - hope you are all OK this morning.

    xx

    Good morning:wave:
    I'm getting nervous about going to the new clinicnervous.gif
    What I don't want to hear is 'why not go for adoption/', or even 'let's try IVF next cycle'. I want to do it now:(
    I'm going on Friday...

    GemmaE, CONGRATULATIONS!!! :j:j:j
    You are our first December BFP!!! How are you feeling? Any SS??
    Pity your internet is still not on, don't forget to come back and let us know all about it, how you told your DH etc etc:j
    sexymouse, well done on good invigilation:T You'll be great with kids when you become a mum:)
    Whattodonow, yay for possible TTCing another month:j
    Hope you don't have to though:D
    Nicki, (((hugs))) for your DH. Hopefully the word will get around the burglar population, that there's a big strong man protecting your house, and burgling is pointless.
    Secretdebts, fingers crossed the spotting was a false alarm:o
    Littlezee, glad both your MIL and your dad is recovering well:)
    Hope your MIL's house is ready soon:)
    Kitten_pie, between shower/microwave/freezer, I'd go for shower first:p Wouldn't something like this work?

    emsbet, (((hugs))) for pg related dreams:(
    I haven't have one of them for ions, must have given up now:o
    TTC40, yay for Peak!:j If you haven't had Peak for 3 months, then this egg may be a super eggy!:cool: Good luck BDing with your colds:o

  • Congratulations gemma knew we were due some bfps! Ehos next??!

    Omg nicki thats awful. I don't understand how normal human beings can do summat like that. Not normal I suppose. B@st@rds.

    QQ it's only because you explained in here that due date is calculated from first day of last period that I realised I have extra time! I'd always assumed it was from date of missed period :) so thanks! (again) :o use the spirit of the wagging finger and be strong at your appointment! Let them know Qs boss :D
    I'm canceling the cd1 alert.
    any news?

    Q - I'm sure the clinic will have plenty of PMA to share with you.

    Hope all goes well & you have to cancel it after this appointment because you get a BFP as a Christmas pressie from the recent BDing.
